"Doubtless, a heart grows tarnished like brass or silver, and its polish is by remembrance(zikr),
which may make it shine like a crystal mirror.
So when one neglects the remembrance(zikr) it tarnishes, and when he returns it shines.
Since the heart is tarnished by two things- heedlessness and sin
it is polished by two things- remembrance(zikr) and asking forgiveness."


- Ibn al-Qayyim

When your companion becomes angry and says something that is unwarranted, you should not take it too hard.
His situation is that of a drunken person who is not aware of what is taking place. Instead, be patient, even if it means only for a little while.
If you reciprocate his words with harsh words of your own, you become like the sane person who seeks revenge on a madman,
or the conscious person who seeks retribution from an unconscious one.
Look at him with a merciful eye and pity him for his actions.

No matter how much success and fame we attain in this world, it is but for a few days.
We should [seek to] attain the proximity and pleasure of that Pure Being who is attributed with perpetual eternity.’’

"I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive.
Forgiveness ought to be like a canceled note - torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one."

"Whoever knows himself well,
would keep himself justly reforming himself instead of talking about the faults of others.
Whoever knows his Lord,
would keep himself busy trying to please Him(Allah) instead of trying to please himself."

to have lengthy hopes/desires in your life ."
